BUILD LOG: SOLEIL ROYAL - TRYING TO ENHANCE KIT DeA [COMPLETED BUILD]

I just stumbled upon your build log again after a long absence. Such fun to read, and am admiring your beautiful work. It's great to see how DeAgostini did creating a kit of Soleil Royal. Congratulations on a successful build of this wonderful ship!

Thank you for your kind words. Well. DeA created a good kit but there was a lot to improve and add, particularly about rigging and yards.
Soon I will restart to post on my current work, the Requin admiralty version: stay tuned!
